For the season, Lawson had 47 goals and 31 assists and was named to the all-conference first team.

Lawson believes his love for the sport has helped him reach the upper echelon.

“I spend a lot of time practicing,” Lawson said. “I work hard. I’m still working on dodging and getting better in traffic. I have a great team around me. I’m looking forward to next year. We can definitely go back (to states).”

Lawson, who lives in Gorham, has also sailed at Cheverus and may take part in football this upcoming season. He’s a member of Key Club and plays for the Maineiax premier team. He spent time in Maryland earlier this summer at a showcase for college coaches. Lawson wants to play in college, but first hopes to win a state title or two and be named All-American.

Don’t bet against him. Thomas Lawson, Cheverus’ Spring Male Athlete of the Year, has already established himself as one of the state’s premier scorers and the bad news for the opposition is that he’s only going to keep getting better.

Coach Bill Bodwell’s comment: “Tom loves the game of lacrosse and spends time working on his own to become a better player. Tom has excellent stick skills and is big and strong for a sophomore. He typically draws the opposing team’s best defenseman and his ability to move the ball when the defense keys on him makes everyone better. He led our team in both goals and assists.”

Logan did a little of everything this spring, making more impact plays at different spots on the field than anyone, helping her team do something it had never before accomplished.

Logan came to lacrosse naturally as her father, Jim, coached in Brunswick, where she grew up. She started playing in elementary school, competed for North Yarmouth Academy in middle school, then made an impact as a freshman, helping Cheverus reach the regional final. Logan was named a first-team league all-star as a sophomore as the Stags again reached the regional final, but that all paled in comparison to what she accomplished this spring.

Logan scored 44 goals, had nine assists, scored on 62 percent of her shots, won 47 ground balls and 62 draw controls and forced 30 turnovers, a stat line likely unmatched by any other player in Maine.

“It’s just so great,” Logan said, after the win. “I came up watching my Dad coach Brunswick, seeing Brunswick come to the state final. I just imagined myself here. I just can’t believe it.”

Logan also plays a key role on Cheverus’ very strong field hockey team. She played hockey as a freshman and sophomore and took part in the throws in indoor track as a junior. She’ll attend an All-American Lacrosse Showcase in Florida this month (she’s the only player from Maine) and also competed for the Maine Team.

Logan is a member of National Honor Society, Key Club, Haiti Solidarity Club, Do Something Club, Home Front Club, was named an All-American honorable mention, qualified for the All-American All-Academic team, serves as a volunteer tutor, has over 250 hours of community service under her belt and found the Lacrosse-4-ME Foundation, a non-profit which provides free lacrosse equipment and instruction to underserved youth in the area.

“I pride myself on hard work,” Logan said. “I’m a perfectionist.”

Logan, who hopes to win another title and earn All-American as a senior, is highly coveted by colleges and is weighing her options at the next level. She wants to play lacrosse and is interested in pursuing a degree in neuroscience.

Clearly, her record speaks for itself. Alex Logan, Cheverus’ Spring 2013 Female Athlete of the Year, has already established an amazing legacy and has one more year left to shine in a Stags’ uniform.

Coach Jamie Chamberlain’s comment: “Alex is an athlete with a great attitude, who has worked incredibly hard to make herself a very good player. As a midfielder, this means she works on taking draws, on her defense and also on her shooting. She’s the consummate midfielder because she’s been willing to put in the practice time and push herself to get better. She’s become not only a leader by example, but also a mentor to her teammates. She played through injuries and illness without complaint and when we needed a big play to change momentum during a close game, more often than not, Alex came up with the clutch play. She also has the same work ethic in the classroom and finds time to get involved with community service projects. The good news for Cheverus is that Alex was just a junior.”
